Glistening In The Rain

After a yummy French Dinner we walked back to our car, in the rain and I could resist this photo of bikes in beautiful Reims, France!

Beautiful Forest

After breakfast Chelsea and I went for a little walk behind Andrea & Sandra’s home where there is a beautiful forest! I told them they have their own sacred grove in their back yard! It’s awesome!

Driving On The Left!

Because I come from New Zealand, driving on the left side of the road has never been a worry! However, this time, driving a car with the driver on the left, makes things a little scarier, worrisome & concerning! 😀 So far so good!!

Growing Up The House

We drove over to the Cathedral of Notre-dame so I could take some photos of it before we left Reims. As I walked around the outside I saw these beautiful flowers, I think roses but, I can’t tell for sure, growing on this house, GORGEOUS!

Cathedral of Notre-Dame

I enjoyed walking around this gorgeous Cathedral. They are cleaning it, so there is a lot of scaffolding. Some parts of it are so clean and others very black! I loved this door!

Gate With No Walls

On our way north, we did a quick stop in Lugano, Switzerland. Our new friend, Tammy Hibbard, took us on a quick & great tour! She took us to the Parco Civico where there is this gate with no walls. It is the gate to Lake Lugano.

Gorgeous Skies

After driving for a while in rain and fog, we entered a tunnel and about 20 minutes later, when we exited it, we were in blue & sunny skies!

Bern Switzerland Temple

On our way to France we drove by the Bern Temple. The last time we were here (9 years ago) we went by the Temple so I could get a photo and I was so sad because it was under construction, they were putting Moroni on top.  But now, finally I got it!  Though it was a bit over cast and rained heavily as we drove thru France, I was able to get this lovely shot before the clouds let loose.

At Our Friend’s House

We had a fun day with our friends, Enrico & Letizia Consoli! They took us to a pretty little village, Piediluco. Upon returning to their home they told us to relax, so I did!

Drizzly Day

DrizzlyDayComo, Italy – 2016 – iPhone

It was a wet drizzly day in Merone, Italy, but that didn’t stop us! We drove to Como to find a friend we hadn’t seen in years. We weren’t sure if we’d find her, if the phone numbers we had would work. The first one didn’t but the second one did! She was as excited to hear from us as we were excited that we found her! She invited us to her home and we had such a nice visit! As we left, I ran up the stairs to look out a window, hoping for a view of Como and I found it! ENJOY!

Italian Countryside

We left Guidonia and drove to Poggio Nativo, we used our GPS and we went via the country all the way. It was beautiful! And then when we left Poggio Nativo it also took us by way of the country. We had a wonderful trip through the countryside of Italy!

Olive Grove

We had a wonderful time with our friends Lorenzo Perticaroli, Lorenza Perticaroli & Emanuele Guidara! It rained while we ate lunch together so, when we went outside everything was fresh with the moisture from the rain! I took this photo of their olive grove and the beautiful view behind it, in Poggio Nativo, Italy.
